Look out Prince Harry, her daddy is a baddy

Prince Harry's new squeeze Cressida Bonas' father was branded 'unreliable' buy a judge

Toff Jeffrey Bonas borrowed £350,000 from a bank to help pay his first wife Elspeth £1.2million after their 1986 split

Toff Jeffrey Bonas borrowed £350,000 from a bank to help pay his first wife Elspeth £1.2million after their 1986 split.

But the former Harrow public schoolboy stalled over the payment – which ballooned to £578,000.

After a lengthy dispute, the aristocrat reached a settlement with the bank in 2003.

But he took his solicitor’s firm to court to claim back a substantial part of the debt because he felt they had mistreated him.

Yet, despite finding that his solicitor had “acted in breach of confidence”, a High Court judge threw out Mr Bonas’ case and questioned the Oxford graduate’s honesty and integrity during the dispute.

In a judgment summing up the case, Mr Justice Lindsay said: “I have preferred the evidence of ­persons other than Mr Bonas.

“He was for a short span a man of exceptional wealth and, perhaps to protect that position, cloaked his ­affairs with “offshore” Isle of Man trusts and bank ­accounts.

“Anyone who goes to such lengths and then later finds himself in debt can hardly complain when others ­conclude that it might be he has more resources than he is claiming to have.

“I cannot regard Mr Bonas as a reliable or candid witness.”

Twice-divorced Mr Bonas, whose 23-year-old sexy blonde model daughter was spotted kissing Prince Harry in a London club last week, describes himself on his website as an entrepreneur, businessman and historian.

The former boxer had Cressida with his second wife, 1960s cover girl Lady Mary-Gaye Georgiana Lorna Curzon but they divorced after six years of marriage in 1994.

Cressida, who models for ­upmarket brand Burberry, was said to be “all over” the 27-year-old prince at a posh Mayfair nigh­tspot after the premier of the new ­Batman film The Dark Knight Rises.

The leggy society babe, who is close pals with Harry’s cousin ­Princess Eugenie, went to Leeds University, the same place Harry’s ex Chelsy Davy studied.
